Formed in 1949, Al Quwwat al-Jawwiya al-Lubnamia – Force Aerienne Libanaise is small and almost inactive.

Roundel	Fin Flash

Red disc with an inscribed white triangle pointing upwards, and a green disc within the triangle. Source: [Album des Pavillons 1995.

The green circle should be tangent to the sides of the white triangle. I have seen photos of planes with that sign on. This derives from the fact that the cedar must touch the upper and lower red stripes of the flag.

In [Album des Pavillons 2000 the green disc touches the sides of the triangle. The version with smaller green disc (from one of the corrections to [Album des Pavillons 1990) is only an error, not found in [Cochrane and Elliott 1998.
A note in [Album des Pavillons 2000 explains that the national flag is painted on the fin.

From its start in 1949, Al Quwwat al-Jawwiya al-Lubnamia – Force Aerienne Libanaise used the same roundel as currently. [c2e98] reports a rudder insignia made of national flag while [whe86] reports it as fin flash, but it is Yugoslav-like markings that can be seen on some planes here and here.

The size of the green circle varies a fair bit; historical photos of FAL aircraft sometimes have it tangent to the sides of the triangle, sometimes notably smaller; see detail of photo.
